Introduction

BC is BC architects & studies & materials. BC stands for Brussels Cooperation and points to how BC grew - embedded within place and people. We operate through 3 legal entities registered in Belgium: BC architects bv (architecture company), BC studies vzw (non-profit education laboratory), BC materials cv (material production cooperative). BC is a hybrid practice, designing and undertaking "acts of building" towards systemic change in the construction sector. We strive for bioregional, low-tech, circular, beautiful and inclusive design. We work with our minds and our hands, undertaking activities such as community organisation, material production, contracting, teaching, prototyping. We aim to impact positively on people's ideas and planet. We act on behalf of the generations after us.

BC architects is an award-winning architectural office, and is teaching at KULeuven University (BE), UHasselt University (BE), RWTH Aachen University and has previously taught at EiABC Addis Ababa University (ET), ETH Zurich (CH), TU Stuttgart (DE), TU München (DE),... Started in between 2009 and 2012, our team currently consists of 4 co-founders and around 15 collaborators, working from Brussels on projects on the European and African continents.

BC studies is a non-profit research and education laboratory investigating the material environment through processes of construction and production. BC studies manifests itself in teaching & education,  consultancy, workshops and published research.
